(39,909 posts)I wouldn't stop at just guns and sports, but conspicuous consumption at every level. There are birds who attract mates by collecting and displaying shiny pieces of trash.
Henry Kissinger, one of our species most physically unattractive males,
who once said ""Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac."
He never had any trouble getting laid.
Unfortunately, his quest for Penis Enhancement led to the deaths of millions of innocents.
The problem is that none of these Penis Enhancers work unless they are displayed in public.
Hence, we have the sporting arenas,
the muscle cars (including the high priced spreads Mercedes, BMW, Cadillacs, suburban SUVs stc),
and the enormous nests (overly large and inefficient homes),
and the public display guns, especially the appeal of the assault rifles.
But we shouldn't stop there.
We should also look at the companion element.
The males of our culture wouldn't have this obsession with Penis Extenders,
if they didn't work.
If these behaviors were unsuccessful at attracting females,
these behaviors would have been eliminated through natural selection long ago.
So this is not simply an aberration of the male gender that has occurred in a vacuum.
It is literally being Cheered On from the sidelines by the females of our species
who reward the best Penis Enhancements with sexual favors,
usually from the female who has the best enhanced breasts,
or judged most f**kable in stage contests where females compete with each other for the privilege.
Is it little wonder that we are destroying ourselves?
